Indexes Do Not Tell The Tale Of Damage

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 20:27:15 GMT

First, pardon all the trading today - some days just require it. I'm already exhausted and its only 2 PM. Second, we've been saying the indexes are not reflecting the carnage seen "underneath" - my watch lists are full of names in the $500M to $5B market cap space which is my sweet spot, and it looks like September 2008 . Here is a sampling of what is really happening when you move away from McDonalds, IBM, Walmart, and Microsoft.[More...]

Monday Morning Musings

Mon, 01 Jun 2009 15:29:48 GMT

Good monday morning. Nice start to the week, and the month, even though its still very early. Stocks surged in the last hour of trading on Friday, and that buying pressure has continued from the open this morning. There was a batch of better than expected economic news that helped things this morning. The ISM Manufacturing Index came in at 42.8, and has now improved for the last 3 consecutive months. Construction spending for April also surprised, coming in at +0.8% vs. expectations of a -1.5% decline. And personal incomes increased +0.5% in April, better than the -0.2% expected decrease. The positive tone in the market has pushed the S&P 500 to its highest level since January 6th.[More...]

Position Update, Charts

Tue, 21 Apr 2009 01:11:16 GMT

After today's broad-based decline, I get the sense we are at or near an intermediate top. At the same time, I do not expect the bulls to simply roll over here. Looking at some index charts, we can see that while today's action was undeniably bearish, price has support nearby. Volume was not particularly high today. - SPY broke down out of a rising wedge on a very slight increase in volume. The 200 day moving average is not far below. [More...]

Re-Building From The Ground Up

Sun, 19 Apr 2009 16:44:35 GMT

Although the industrial sector had a rough year in 2008, there were some sectors, like conglomerates, rails, and aerospace and defense sub-sectors, that were able to help boost some of the lagging sub-sectors that relied heavily on residential construction and business spending. The net effect was an out performance in the first three quarters of the year. In Q4 2008 and the beginning of 2009, we’ve seen the performance of the Industrials ETF, the XLI (XLI: 21.11, -0.01 (-0.05%)), significantly underperform the S&P 500 as the more attractive sub-sectors in 2008 began to plummet based on economic factors such as the expected 2010 defense report for the defense sector, and lower volumes for the railroad[More...]

Day End Summary

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 22:20:00 GMT

I've been positioned short since last week, and up until today my account was holding up pretty well, considering. Today was a bit more painful. I covered my UBS short, but otherwise I'm sticking with my positions for now. The SPX 800 level was much talked-about, and shorts were scrambling to cover with the strong close. At the same time, volume appears to be just slightly above average on a day that saw index ETF's up between 6 and 9 percent. The buying may continue, but I do not see this as a good place to cover shorts that are under water. For now, we still have a V-shaped move off of the lows on mediocre volume, with resistance remaining above. SPY is now peeking out of its downtrend channel, but it is not free and clear of resistance. [More...]
